## Algologist saves you from pain This is a physician who specializes in treating chronic pain that is not amenable to therapeutic treatment. An algologist can determine the type of pain and, depending on the cause, prescribe treatment such as medications, injections to block nerve impulse transmission, or radiofrequency ablation. ## Cephalologist treats the head This is an even narrower specialist than the algologist. This type of physician deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of migraines, cluster pain, tension headaches, and facial somatic pain. ## Podologist helps feet This is a specialist in foot problems (not necessarily with a medical degree) and a master of medical pedicure who can eliminate corns, calluses, warts, cracked heels, ingrown toenails, nail inflammation and nail fungus. This type of physician also performs nail plate plastic surgery and even nail prosthetics. ## Neurourologist solves a delicate problem Neurourologists treat urinary disorders associated with neurological problems. They treat patients with hyper- and hypoactivity of the bladder, uncoordinated contraction of the muscles of the bladder and its sphincter, and chronic pain in the pelvic area. ## Kinesiologist works with the muscles Kinesiology assumes that disorders in the work of each organ are accompanied by weakness of a particular muscle or group of muscles. Doctors in this specialty use manual muscle testing to study the anatomical, biomechanical, physiological and neuropsychological mechanisms of human movement and treat problems by acting on the muscles. > Kinesiologists also help to select the most optimal movements for athletes, as well as optimize the performance of people engaged in physical labor and monotonous movements. ## Phoniatrist makes the voice sound better A phoniatrist is necessary for people whose work is connected with constant tension of the vocal cords. This type of physician treats diseases of the vocal apparatus, larynx, and vocal cords as well as restores the voice and develops its capabilities.
